I checked out the flash at the University of Utah site, and I must say
it is impressive for gnash. Looks like that swf was made with Flash 7,
or at least that's its minimum requirement. Unfortunately, gnash has a
while to go, as it will never be in a satisfactory state until - it
loads YouTube videos. Yes, ridiculous, but true, since I'm sure that is
one of the many flash sites that people want to load. :(

Well, personally, I'd rather light a candle than curse the darkness, so...
Today, I fetched the repo sources for the "HEAD" version of gnash, built
and installed it, and I must say, it's working far better than the
latest release version (0.8.3). Sites that wouldn't work properly
before are now displaying beautifully. Here's a good example of a site
that would break before, but works now:
http://learn.genetics.utah.edu/units/addiction/drugs/mouse.cfm
See http://www.gnu.org/software/gnash/#downloading for info on how to
obtain the sources. You'll need to install devel/bazaar-ng (yes, yet
another version control system!) to fetch the code.
To configure, I ran "gnash -V" using the existing (0.8.3) version and
copied the configuration switches from the resulting output. Then ran
gmake to build and install (after pkg_deleting the old version, of
course).
I'm pleased with the results. Still not 100% perfect, but a whole heck
of a lot better.
